sending the bill to our children and grandchildren. the president is out there saying, if all we will do is tax, quote, unquote, rich people a little more, we'll solve the problem. well, here are the two problems with his logic. number one, half of this income that he wants to tax is small business income. in the economic studies show 700,000 of our fellow citizens will go from having paychecks to unemployment checks under his plan and as the economy contracts, every american left with a paycheck will see 2% less in it. so that's my first point. the second point is you give the president every single job crushing increase that he wants, gretchen, it runs the government for eight, maybe nine days. you can't solve it there. he's had government grow 20% under his watch. so our revenues have been about level for the last five or six years, but spending has skyrocketed. we're on the verge of being the first generation in america's history to leave the next generation with fewer jobs and fewer opportunities and a lower standard of living. >>
